California Prescription Drug Rehab

Though prescription drugs are commonly utilized by health care professionals to treat a variety of alments, they can be deadly if prescription drug addiction develops. Of the three classes of prescription drugs most often abused, opioid-based painkillers rank first on the list. As the number of opiate drug prescriptions rises, so too does the number of people seeking treatment for prescription drug addiction. Opioids are generally prescribed to treat mild to severe pain, however, when you develop prescription drug addiction and must supplement your prescription to achieve the original pain-relieving effects, overdose, coma and death can occur. The best solution: a California prescription drug rehab.

The Canyon can help you avoid the risks associated with prescription drug addiction by providing you with a California prescription drug rehab. Whether you choose our inpatient or outpatient prescription drug rehab in California, you are guaranteed a thorough and safe prescription drug detox and addiction treatment.

California Prescription Drug Rehab: What to Expect

A medical detox or medically supervised treatment program is necessary for people who suffer from prescription drug addiction, and every California prescription drug rehab will start with a prescription drug detox. Medication can lessen the withdrawal symptoms associated with prescription drug detox and help you to focus on treating other effects of prescription drug addiction in the form of behavioral, cognitive and alternative therapies and treatments.

California Prescription Drug Rehab: Prescription Drug Detox

There are different kinds of prescription drug detox available to you at our California prescription drug rehab. One popular choice is methadone, a synthetic opioid that replaces your prescription drug of choice. This medicine has been used in opiate addiction and withdrawal treatment for 30 years, and the strict regulations surrounding the drug means that it is only available for patients who are able to receive their medication daily in a methadone clinic or at an inpatient California prescription drug rehab.

Buprenorphine (also known as Subutex and Suboxone) is similar to methadone, in that it is a drug solely prescribed to treat opiate addiction. You may take buprenorphine at an inpatient or outpatient California prescription drug rehab and slowly step down your dose until you are completely drug-free.

California Prescription Drug Rehab: Prescription Drug Addiction Treatment

California prescription drug rehab programs are available on an inpatient or outpatient basis. As an inpatient, you will live in a residential facility until your treatment is done for a month or longer, as your circumstance and addiction issues dictate. In an outpatient program, you may go home each night but are expected to return to your California prescription drug rehab each day for a certain amount of time to take part in support groups, personal therapy, medical appointments and behavioral therapy.
